Nobody responded so I'll give you some generals.

Fill plugs are usually topside and about 3" dia with a square nut thing on top for an adjustable wrench (Crescent brand trade name = Crescent wrench). Full plugs and dipsticks determine levels. Both are about the same height up the side of the tractor which is about 40% up the height of the housing. On a common sump with dipstick that level is for everything.

Most Masseys I've seen have a common sump (tran/hyd/diff) and the fill is adjacent to the tranny shifters.

Fluid is usually trans/hydraulic combination. Lots of brand specs; Deere is .....303..., Ford uses ..... 134...., and so on.
